How to use Apivar To Treat Your Bees For Varroa Mites 

Good advise, what I’d planned to do tomorrow now the supers are off but just needed some reassurance. 👍

Good job slow and steady wins the race. Blessings to you today.

Great video! Thanks for posting about Apivar!

Hi Gruff, great info mate , did all mine last weekend with a apistan and apivar just to see if there is a difference I’ve been using apiguard the last couple of years so all change this season. Good luck with all your treatments gruff mate.

Thanks mite!:)

Gruff great video again, i have 5 2 frame splits off a previously untreated hive. I have apitraz so was going to put 1 strip in each but they are currently queenless ( new queens coming tuesday from Laurance) so would ypu advise not to treat until she is in and laying or treat before? I just was thinking regards the chemical interfering with her pheromone.

Again thank you for all your help any time now once the supers off then treat excellent advice as always . If you were leaving supers on to feed through the winter will it affect there feed ?

I really like your "hive tool" with the grabber. do you know where you got it or specifically what it is clled?

Great video. So we have just transferred a nuc into a brood box. It was suggested to put a treatment in now during the derth how long should we leave it in before a flow starts again

How effective is this stuff ??? And can u treat anytime of the year ? ..... if I'm not collecting honey can i use it whenever I want to in the season ?

First year beekeeper here, should I start treating now..? I have two colonies both was swarms I caught the end of May.. one doesn't have a super on,, the other one does, but I live in sunny South Wales and it's been appalling weather... but both colonies are doing really well in 14x12 hives.. so thinking of taking super off this week get in them ready for the winter..

What I'm confused about is the number of strips in the pack. The strips come out in 2 piece pull-apart form, so if i order a 12 pack, is it 12 two piece strips or is it 6 two piece strips? Also I see this video is 2 years old, are you still using Apivar? I've heard from a couple of channels that it wasn't working for them very well anymore. Curious if you've had an issue using it since this video was made?

Would you use four strips on double brood, i.e. two lower two higher ?

How long do they last in the packet once opened. I only have 2 hives so would only need 4 strips per treatment? Would they last throughout the season?

It's almost cool enough weather to treat here.

That is actually designed to stick into the comb not on top of the bar
